Limits on choice mean the new shopping gadget won't click for everyone. Bridget Carey explains how the buttons work, and the rule changes for sharing your Prime perks with others.
The worst thing I can imagine with the dash button is when some jerk in your house presses the button 100 times to be funny
Imagine having 100 boxes of GLAD garbage bags or worse, 100 bulk shipments of Tide
+Time keeper Not true...according to Amazon, they state a feature of the button is that it "Ensures Dash Button responds only to your first press until your order is delivered."
Yeah just eat and/drink all the Tide
Walsh Eating tide pods are overrated.
I shove them up my ass. Better
Is this a tide ad
Kraft Tide Pods is my favorite dinner
Everyone needs to keep in mind that yes the buttons does cost $4.99 but it gives you a FULL REFUND after you press the button the very 1st time!
Matt Pina finally someone says it
A dream for the morbidly obese
NINJA B01 😅😂😂😂😂
so are you telling me, you need a button to tell amazon you need a 12 pack box of mac and cheese, instead of actually going to the store, and getting everything you need in one go.
demonpride1975 yes
Imagine your KID find's it and starts pressing over and over
Deo Heerai There's a limit. And I assume if it's not already an option you would eventually be able to manually set a limit on your account settngs
Deo Heerai Lol
It works once and after you press it, it sends a notification to your phone if you want to cancel. Destroyed all the fun here, moving on. c:
it actually only orders 1 quantity of product in a 12 hr period
I hate it it on the website i clicked it odered a $100 that we ordered before i freaked out and cancelded and it and was flipping out
If you've ever seen wall-e, this ensures we are all well on our way of becoming the people in hover lounge chairs in that movie
ya
true
LOL
So true!😂
It's almost like Amazon wants us to become those people in that movie! Like really? Which is why I have pure hatred for Amazon!
Nathan Andrew Davis Alex Jones, is that you?
I need a Dash Button that orders Dash Buttons!
They cost $5 but give you $5 off your first purchase.

Bryan Livingston I
Bryan Livingston when ever you buy them you still pay for it, it’s not free
Bryan Livingston WHAT A GENIUS OMG
i just imagine a kid spamming that mac and cheese button
birb memes that’s so my brothers 😂
i just imagine a kid spamming that tide pod button
i laughed at this for 3 minutes
;lol such cute comments
birb memes oml thats me right there 🤣🤣🤣
Is it really that hard to just go on Amazon and order it manually?
Kyle Williams People have become ultra lazy
It is a novelty. There is always someone that pays for anything all the time and there is always a business that capitalizes on that.
How about the local grocery or the dollar store in your neighborhood....
What if you forget later to get that item.
Kyle Williams
Yes.
I'm fat.
Please stop judging me!!
GAWD!
So first came online shopping that made it easier then going to your local store 5 minutes away. And now you don't even have to open the amazon website you just click a button lol

My "local" store is 15-20minutes away
So few things with this one, the biggest one is that fact that she says "you pay for the privilege" of the button. But she doesn't mention that the small fee is applied to the first purchase. So then it is free. (Of course they need to to this to stop people from just ordering buttons.) It works. It is great for my elderly mom who would rather not drive.
Charles J b
Charles five dollars isn't a small fee! Fifty cents is a small fee. You must be rich
Maaaybe this could benifit resturants?
Anas Malas I could see how that would be handy in resturants or other businesses.
Any other business yes, restaurants no. They order their stuff from catering companies at much more lower prices than Amazon. I could see this being useful if it came with six buttons. Imagine a six button device in the staff kitchen for coffee, tea, sugar, hot chocolate, etc or a six button device in the cleaning cupboard or the printer room in an office. One button devices are pointless and wasteful.
Oml what if a child just pressed the Mac and cheese like 100 times 😂
If I go to somebody's house and find this magical button, I'm going to press it a thousand times.
and it will work only once, because Amazon is smart like that.
Nothaut Lol... only orders one time, then asks to confirm the next orders if its pressed too many times.
I am using mine to order tidepods
Wallcop tasty
you peoolజ్ఞా are stalజ్ఞా
Oooooo
For your dishwasher cuz that is de way.
Ugandan Knuckles no stop
I like her black and gold dress.
Zeyu Chen Blue and black.
TdkPlays WHITE AND GOLD YOU DUMBASS!
*****
go to hell
White and gold...
Imagine your child pressing the button like 20 times
nyonstrike y. You now have 20 things of Mac n cheese. Enjoy.
I’d be ready for the apocalypse at least
Pix that’s not how it works
I mean, I wouldn't think these were a bad idea if they weren't limited to certain things. If there's company specific buttons, it should be able to be mapped to any product (or even just any common product) from that company. Hell, I think blank buttons you can map to any product you commonly purchase is a brilliant idea if they have the balls to do it. I would even buy one or two if that was an option.
Kids be like:

Dad, we bought 100000 bottles of nail polish. You're welcome
The moment when you run out of your favorite snack
Just press the Tide button
i saw tide pod so i clicked
me
Same
Jadhen Pangilinan me three
Forbidden fruit button! MUST...PRESS...IT!!!
Jadhen Pangilinan same
You get the money for the dash buttons back with your first purchase. Lots more dash buttons since then. Very helpful for those of us who have pain when walking and are survivors of concussions.
I'm so going to press these buttons next time I see them at my friends house! They're gonna wonder why they received 100 rolls of toilet paper lol
Well jokes on you they will have a big supply to wipe with
They cost 4.99 you have to pay for shipping but after your first press, you get 4.99
who buys brands anyway? store brands are just as good
David Power The only things that I won't buy store brand are cereal, oreos, and soda.
some cereals are identical.. coco pops for example. porridge.... corn flakes
David Power know that doritos are always better than the off brand nacho cheese chips.
cjallday1130 im not talking about shit food
Many people do i think. this whole button thing with amazon is ment for the upper middle class and upper class who are able to just push a button to order a name brand good without worrying about the price and etc.
If Amazon wants instand buttons so much, why doesn't it just make special internet shortcuts for your desktop / phone that will do the exact same thing?
Still not over the fact that these aren't an April Fools
I wonder if I could order a few things if I put the dash buttons in a blender.
Woo! So now when I run out of my delicious tide pods I can hit a button and get more!
kylo ren I need a Nutella button
No
What if the button after pressing would send you a notification on your smartphone that you are running low and add that item to shopping list (app) instead of buying it?
Why not go to Costco or other stuff and buy all this stuff that you can get with Amazon Prime? Unless you're that busy with work or don't have a shopping center nearby, this is pointless.
Tim Joseph It's more for people who live in the city. At least that's my assumption. In Seattle Amazons very popular for people who live in the actual downtown area, you see the amazon grocery trucks all the time. But outside of the city everyone goes to the store like Costco. It's especially big in places like New York or San Francisco. where people don't usually own car
***** in New York. We have a Bodega, grocery store, supermarket, department store on almost every corner. It's nonsensical lol
Retrokidbk83 I don't live there so you would know better than me. My knowledge of that kind of stuff comes from the thousands of hours of podcasts I listen to at work from people who live in cities and have everything delivered. Here in Seattle though it's more of a carry limit situation. You could walk 3 blocks to the store and buy as much as you can carry for 3 blocks or just have it delivered.
***** we have cabs, buses, trains, and friends and families for that. My mom would have my uncle drive us to Costco or BJs for bulk shopping because he had a truck and for regular grocery shopping we'd just go to pathmark with my pops sedan. The Amazon button thing is just a novelty for lazy folks with money. In New York we use Amazon for books, electronics, etc... Not for food and especially not for household goods we can find in a dollar store or Family Dollar for alot cheaper while avoiding shipping fees. It's moreso for folks in suburban and country/rural areas. We'll see what comes of it tho.
***** lol shit my grandmoms had a big ass pushcart for her bulk shopping sessions lol. It's way to get it there. But I get what you mean
*clicks button*
Thinks it doesn’t work
*clicks thirty more times*
Ends up with 31 boxes of kraft mac and cheese
This has to be the most pointless idea ever...
ONEWAYLEEWAY it’s not pointless, it’s more efficient, work smarter not harder. Maybe you’ll learn that one day
They might not work too well but the idea behind it is really smart!
so when i run out of snacks i can now just click the tide pod button and they will ship me tide pods to home. I dont have to call food delivery anymore Kappa
Señor Chicken ahahah
This woman is right, who doesn't need an emergency Mac n Cheese button
TIDE PODS BUTTON LMFAO
Does RUclips have to put a commercial between nearly every single video?
Tide Pod Panic Button
Amazon Customer: "I gotta press the "Tide Pod Panic Button" so I can do the new Tide Pod challenge where I eat a Tide Pod so I can become famous on RUclips!"
Now when I am hungry I just click the tide button and get some tide pods
So you pribably payimg monthly for being in amazon prime and yet you still have to pay the fee for clicking that button. Nope
I thought you can add 5 people to share the 2 day free shipping Prime...now what?
Each is FREE
There are over 150 buttons.
What if you have kids and they press the button over and over again? Is there a limit or some other way to stop other people from ordering stuff without your permission?
only reasons I pressed this video is because I saw tide pods.
ScellyCraft YT same
Same
Tide*
*kids sees tide button*
Kid:^_^
*Kid spams tide button*
Mom:man I'm runnin outta tide pods.... I'meh go get dat button
*Mom presses button*
Next day
Mom:lemme get Dem tides
*Opens door to a bunch of tide boxes stacked on top of each other*
I saw tide so I clicked it
"who doesn't need a Mac and cheese panic button"
Somebody write that in fancy handwriting, frame it, and out it on the wall. Next to their Mac and cheese panic button.
Who orders groceries off Amazon?
Who listens to G eazy?
Blund0y is iqt bdzaAq📦📦📦🇰🇲🇰🇲🇰🇲🇻🇪🇻🇪✝️✝️✝️📦
Lol
Rembrandt I do
atheer auribi right
Bridget Carey or Veronica Belmont?
I definitely need that tide one
Oofy McOof Face satisfy those midnight cravings you feel me.
Alex Martinez Ohhhh midnight snacks for days, forget about sweets, tide Pods.
***** What about Amazon India? I am really tired of buying products from the shopping mall. :( I need those buttons too.
They should make super buttons that can order anything
maybe they could make buttons that you could post comments with too
what if they made like boards with rows of buttons on them for various letters and symbols
Having a shopping list for Amazon Prime Pantry would be nice. They probably want you to search the Prime Pantry listings so you buy the pringles and pudding, just like the brick and mortar grocery.
I need a Durex button in my room....
What if your kid clicked a button like 200 times and now you have 200 packs of mac and cheese
Really?! Whose brilliant idea was this? Insta fail. Now to fix it get those buttons down to $0.50 cents each and allow them to be assigned to whatever the user wants them to be and then maybe you'll have something...
wow this if this takes off it just proves that our way of life is so fuc#ed up....and also proves we are all doomed...but I think this will flop I hope I'm right....
D Jaquith You get a refund after the first press.
Solid Art Ent. - MΘlecule The offer is only for a limited time and you must be an Amazon Prime member ($99 per year).
I still feel the buttons are not a good idea. I'd prefer using Amazon's Echo Dot and adding to a virtual shopping list.
D Jaquith Im fine with that $8/mo as supposed to how much I would have paid in shipping costs. which is about $30-$40 a month on stuff.
Solid Art Ent. - MΘlecule I'm a Prime member. Try the Echo Dot...
i dont get why living in an apartment would be a problem for the packages? its not any different than getting normal amazon packages, they either leave it in your mailbox, your doorstep, or the apartment office.
Bridget Carey is so dang beautiful. Cheese crisis? Baby I'll cook you Mac and Cheese all damn day
Maybe you can sell her your joystick.
Soooo what exactly is the problem? It does exactly what it says, does it not?
How lazy can a person be 😗
Falah Al-Halawany very. I have 37 buttons at my ready
lazy is just a derogatory term for efficient ;)
Member Berry Nope it's lazy
Ss Finch saves time and energy
Richard Johnson 5 x 37 = 185... You spent 185 dollars on these buttons?
If in the future they (as in shops, not just amazon) do end up delivering everything by drone or something of the sort then a system like this could kind of work, but right now it seems pretty useless..
All i can hear is a woman complaining about how they only supply mens razors.. just use the damn razors i use my boyfriends when i run out it makes no difference.
truman louve or go buy your favorite razors directly in the store. It’s not like you have to buy a pack every day (also Alexa exists so you don’t have to own a specific button to order something without using your fingertips)
I think she said some other stuff too
When you look in the fridge and there is no snacks...... 'clicks tide pod button'
I wanna go in her apartment and cuddle with her
Why were you using like a iPhone 2 in the video?
I will just go to Walmart.
What if you press it by mistake!
Dammmmm mom order more tide pods emmm cos I'm going to wash with them ya that's what I'll do
Evan Murphy p

"Amazon's Dash Buttons may not _click_...for everyone."
Oh! I see what you did there!
the girl in the video is so hot!
zues121510 what if she has a boyfriend or a husband
She's mediocre
zues121510 nobody actually gives a shit
what if who gives a shit
zues121510 GAYYY
so can you press the button to order even more buttons or not?
I can't wait for the day when I find one of these at someone's house I am visiting.
Whats the difference between guys razors and female razors
what color is the dress?
What happens if you click it 50 times or on accident
Wow, they don't even say press to order? & how do you know if the price has increased? I stop ordering things that increase more than 25 cents in one fell swoop. Yep it means I haven't bought a lot of items in YEARS!
When this first came out I remember thinking "what upper-middle class person needs Tide/Macaroni/Fiji so badly they need a plastic button for Amazon to misorder it?"
THIS WILL MAKE THOSE COMPANIES EVEN BIGGER AND THE SMALL ONES THAT ARE GROWING WILL DISAPEAR. PRETTY MUCH WHEN YOU BUY THESE BUTTONS YOU ARE ACCEPTING TO BUY FROM THAT COMPANY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, AND SMALL COMPANIES WILL BE AFFECTED. ALSO IS SO STUPID THAT THEY HAVE TO WAIST SO MANY FUEL OR RESORURCES TO DELIVER TO YOU THOSE PRODUCTS WHEN YOU CAN WALK TO THE NEAREST STORE.
Looks like you could use a button to order a CAPS LOCK key...
In India membership of amazon prime costs only 14.58 $per year
We have one that ships us Cliff Bars. It's really convenient and nice to have.
When your craving tide pods and use your dash button to order in a snack
Can I use the button to buy more buttons?
How about a blank one that you can get anything with?
Why can’t you just have a button that YOU can pick what ships?
Thomas Jefferson needed to panic for that Mac and chess button
now we have an emergency tide pod button
doggo yumm
I thought you pressed them online....
Sounds so much easier to use s pen and paper to write down a shopping list.
Can i get a panic button for panic buttons
Make a instant cup noodles and a top ramen and I'm sold.
The only problem with the dash button is that it starts people starts spamming the Tide button for Tide Pods.
When u run out of tide pods for ur stomach
Where’s the Mountain Dew button
This is an interesting idea, but I can already see little kids wanting to press the buttons. You'll end up with more Tide Pods than Wal-Mart.
Gotta get that tide button for when you got a hankering for a pod
I am now gonna break into a house and press a button 100 times
It's not that stupid. I mean one button would be enough and you could assign it with different options - singdouble press for item 2
and so comes a kid, finds the button, clicks it, thinks it is fun, clicks it over and over.
You are now $2,543.00 in debt with a macaroni and cheese comapny.
oh god i ate my 53rd cup of mac and cheese.
*spams mac and cheese panic button*
There’s only one amazon dash button that’s a food one the mentos amazon dash button and that’s the only one in the UK
Im running out of tide pods to eat thank you amazon for this now you can deliver my favorite food.
